Building a DIY Power Hammer Machine "WITH PLANS" 

if it works dont fix it !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree. This is a good build with the exception of the shaft going through the pillow blocks.

True. But my guess is they used that solely because it allows for a lot more slop in fitting for the tools they have to work with. And can just be bought off the shelf and replaced without much trouble when worn out. Or at least that's my guess. I noticed they tapped it quite a few times with a hammer till the tilt lined up. I have no clue how long that would work and last even if it was greased regularly. Certainly not what pillowblock bearings was designed to do. But I can't help but wonder if it works well enough if you don't have a mill or lathe. Kind of why I watch this stuff. Some of it is an obvious pointless waste of time to build but every once in awhile I find something useful watching it.

He built that with what he had. Easy to replace both the bearings and hammer shaft .4 thumbs up from me. Bsafe dude

@@jhh8688 It won't work, that's the problem. Not long term at least.

Thanks brother

Just make sure the sand is dry. No moisture. If the sand is wet, it could rust the tubing from inside out. You could add a little oil to the sand.

@@robarcher3892 just put oil in the sand. Problem solved

I don’t think he needs your advice

@@ingleberthumperdink9455 YOU KNOW WHAT!?, NOT EVERYONE IS A MR KNOWITALL LIKE YOU ! AND THE REAL INTELLIGENT PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS OPEN TO SUGESTIONS, AND THE ONE THING I'M SURE HE DOES NOT NEED IS YOU TALKING IN HIS NAME 👅

@@ingleberthumperdink9455 yeah but I do. I wouldn’t have thought about that

@@Heiryuu what you don’t think of could fill a warehouse

Copying someone's design and work is paying the highest homage. Go make it. They are showing you how.

I want to make one like this or big from where can I get parts

It will be available soon on my patreon site

Means it's really work and strong..

Boom boom boom...cant touch this

Thanks a lot brother

Brp hrganya?

GK tau brapa harga nya,,

I get your point, but there's a fine line between the pulley slipping and grabbing. A better upgrade would be to have a variable speed motor.. Like from a treadmill or something-- so that you could turn down the speed, and it would run slower, even when you are fully engaged on the pedal; the belts would last longer that way too, since they wouldn't have to slip as much.... a quick and dirty upgrade though: Just take a 2 ft bar (with a hook on the end), lay the hook end on your foot pedal, and let the other end stick out onto the floor--- then you can set your heel on the floor and push on that rod like an accelerator pedal and have a lot more control--- it would also extend the reach (like you said) and give you a finer touch. Easy upgrade that's also easy to throw aside when you don't need it.

It won't last very long I've never seen anyone use pillow block bearings in this manor

Thank you and i hope the project helps you alot.

what size motorcycle shock did you use.

Salamat bro

Those are not guide bearings they are called pillow blocks definitely not meant for this purpose.

Exactly.. lol.. I don't know why you used those giant pillow block bearings. lol.. its not spinning, it doesn't need bearings. You would have been better off just using some large brass bushings with a little channel on the inside that would have a grease fitting on the outside--- held inside some steel bracing, and make sure that you are lubing it often... and that way, the bushings are easily replaceable... Easy to upgrade it to that though.

Those (pillow block) maybe the cheapest means here in Phils to make a sliding guide..to build an efficient one could be costly..at least he made it work for demo or proto..pillow blocks are cheap here, that size roughly cost just $10

Thanks bro

If you do it, don't use pillow blocks to guide the main hammer shaft. They're not designed for linear motion and will generate a lot of heat from friction and you will be wasting your money on them because it will rapidly wear out the inner collar. You would be better off doing as with suggested in another comment to use a self-lubricating brass bushing.
